Uh, no need to shout, I already acknowledged my awareness of him being a neighbor. It doesn't change the fact, to me, that it's unusual for someone to offer a large reward to help find individuals who there is no reason to believe they are missing due to foul play/abduction. Websleuths is sadly full of posts about missing people....people lost near lakes, rivers, on oceans, cruiseships, in the woods, etc............and this is the first I've read of a substantial reward being offered. Again, IMO, a large sum like that would make more sense putting it to use in hiring planes, drones, searchers with boats and whatever other resources/manpower to search. It's already been reported that the coast guard doesn't want a bunch of extra boat traffic, particularly in riskier areas where they are at risk of getting into trouble. I would think that those in that local area and those in the boating community are doing all that they can to find these boys as soon as possible and they don't need the lure of $100,000 to motivate them to find them.
